the vaud
ha girls;
IDELY known as favorites on
udeville stage, two Oma-
i Kirls are to appear this week
as a feature of the Urpheum bill,
making this their first professional
appearance in their home city. They
are billed as the Lachman sisters.
For the last three seasons their
popularity has steadily increased,
They have played over the Keith
and Orpheum circuits. Their stage
preparation was acquired almost
wholly in this city. Although known
to vaudeville as the Lachman sis-
' ters, it develops that one of them is
Miss Violet Carlson, whose, mother
resides at 2211 Davenport street. It
will be recalled that several years
ago Miss Carlson made a favorable
impression here for her grace as a
dancer. Among her first engage
ments as an entertainer she ap
peared in a cabaret dancing act at
the Henshaw cafe, with Harry
, Walker as her dancing partner, it
is, however, as a singer that she lias
scored her most favorable impres
sion in vaudeville. She had her
training under Millie Kyan.
As for Miss Hildegarde Lachman,
whose mother travels with the act,
she has been a dancer ever since she
was 3 years old. The spirit and
grace of her work in the manner of
Russian dancing won wide recogni-
" tion in an amateur way long before
her stage dancing began. She was
one of the most expert, lithe and
'graceful pupils ever to receive in
struction by Prof. Chambers.
For its stellar attraction this
week the Orpheum is to present
Harry Green in the one-act satiri
cal comedy, "George Washington
Cohen." The play is by Aarcvr
Hoffman, one nf the authors ol
"'Friendly Enemies," and other suc
cesses. Clifford and Wills are to
appear in the comedy skit, "At Jas
per Junction." Mr. Clifford is seen
in the character comedy role of tin
rural Station agent. Miss Wills i

The Chicago Opera association is
the only first-class organization in
America to go on an extended tour.
There are several smaller companies
that travel in different sections of
the country, and in a way, blaze sort
of a trail in those parts of the coun
try remote from the larger musical
centers, but they make no pretense
of giving finished productions of
grand opera. To Cleofoiite Cam
panini. general director of the Chi
cago Opera association, belongs the
credit of giving , the best opera to
other cities other than in Chicago
and New York, where opera is an
established institut:on. His fall sea
son, embracing such towns as Mil
waukee, St. Paul, Kansas City, Des
Moines, Omaha. Oklahoma City,
Fort Worth, Houston, Little Rock
and Peoria, is by no means a small
tour when one considers the vast
amoutU of material, such as scenery,
costumes and other properties that
go to complete a production, men
there are so rnany people to be car
ried alone, and their needs looked
after. The roster shows that these
cities enroute are many miles apart
and railroad connections have to be
figured to the minute.
On this tour Mr. Campar.ini has
nnt t:0 1. tr1 lc email r r A 11 r rn c
to present to his out-of-Chicago pat
rons. "Aida" is one 'of the longest
and most stupendous operas ever
written, and the company will pre
sent this Verdi masterpiece in the
same manner as 'tis done in the
Auditorium' theater, Chicago, and
the Lexington Avenue theater, New
York. "La Bohr me" is also an opera
that requires a fine deal of scenery.
The singers for the principal roles
are world famous. Raisa, Gluck,
Braslau, Shadow, Dolci. Haklanoff,
Nicotay. Rimini and others are
known the opera world over.
The Chicago Opera association is
not surpassed by any organization
in the world. The productions
given each vear bv Mr. Cam nan in
and the great singers lie presents to
his patrons are to be found nowhere
else in the, world. Other opera
.muses may nave a greater singer at
times, out wnerc is tnc re such a
galaxy of brilliant artists under the
management of one man? This sea-
con Mr. Campanini has many sur
prises for the opera world, but on
this tour the patrons of opera in
eacn city can rest assured ot hear
ing three of the best-known operas
bf the day, sung by a cast unsur
passed at any opera house, and
staged in a manner that will dazzle
the eye of even the most critical.
Lee Carrillo, the star of "Lom
bards Ltd." will be presented at the
Brandeis for three days beginning
Monday, Sept. ZZ.
Fiske O'Hara will be seen at the
Brandeis theater Ak-Sar-Ben week

Cuts Off Horse's Tail
Pleasant Hill, Mo.. Sept. 13. A
horse belonging to Charles Powell,
a farmer near here, was the victim
of a painful and rather unusual ac
cident. The horse, while standing
near a threshing machine going full
blast, switched its tail into the ma
chine and the wheel twisted it off
in a few seconds.

FTHE chains are those of dis
I sipation and sclf-indul-"
gence. and the approaching
monster called Sophistry!"
To the girl sitting in the room in
front of the mirror, these words
kept recurring over and over.
Bored and satiated with a life of
self-indulgence, she had gone to a
wild and decadent "Feast of the
Gods," where men and women of
the fast set liad thrown decency to
the Pagan Saturnalia. Her sweet
heart had warned her, and his words
kept ringing in her ears. "And the
pr caching monster is called Soph
istry!" She heard a noise of someone at
the window. .She turned and saw
the man who had promised to sat
isfy her craving lor new thrills,
standing there with a sinister smile
on his evil face. He grabbed her.
As she struggled, another man ap
peared in the room. It was Jimmie,
tier sweetheart! With one blow he
sent the sybarite reeling across the
room. But as Jimmie turned to com
fort her, a shot rang out and her
sweetheart fell mortally wounded.
Her. mother rushed in. The police
came. The sybarite said he had shot
in self-defense. Her lover opened
his eyes, and with his dying breath
confirmed the villain's story. To
save her reputation, her sweet
heart assumed the blame! She bent
her head and wept with convulsive
sobs. The doctor shook her gently
and she awoke! Her maid was
pointing excitely to the window.
She rushed to the window and
looked out. There on the lawn were
two men fighting. One was the
sybarite. The other, Jimmie! Alice
and fighting for her!
This is the finale of "Dangerous
Waters," William Desmond's production.
